          Has anyone ever just got in the tub with their jeans on, and just wear them dry?? I've done it with lesser jean, but the XHS is a whole other animal.

            What I do is that when they’re about 50% dry on the drying rack is put them on for about 15-30 minutes and then wait for them to fully dry. That gives them the 3D effect and gets your shape in without having to wear wet jeans for an hour.  If you want to do the full on dry more power to you! I’d pick a hot sunny day and start in the morning!

              Thanks!! That would be sound advice!! I think wearing them after they are partially dry would do the trick!!

                @Bustdnukles I've tried it in the past and ended up with saggy knees as they stretched out too much whilst drying. I suspect there's also more chance of fade shift doing this. Not the end of the world, and they went back after another wash, but I just hang mine out to dry somewhere warm and well ventilated not and put them back on dry.

                  Thank you sir! I have about 4 days in them, can finally get them buttoned without the use of a mini shoehorn I fashioned. I'll probably do like you said, just rinse, air dry, wash'em when they get ripe!

                    Where can I find decent boxer briefs? I've been upping my wardrobe and undies are next in line. Anyone have suggestions/favorite brands? I know IH does not make any…

                        @Oaktavia I am kind of partial to Mack Weldon Airknit 8" leg boxer briefs. Perfect for under ultra heavy jeans. I think the other ones are kind of shit. But the Airknit hold up well… https://mackweldon.com/products/airknitx-8-inch-boxer-brief

                        I really like the longer legs on these. they give you a free pair if you get them and you don't like them. Return the others and keep the ones your tried on.

                          @Oaktavia I grew up with Hanes and Fruit of the loom boxer briefs and that's all I knew.

                          Then I tried Duluth Trading Company "Buck Naked" Underwear version and that's all I wear now. They're great for any weather, never stretch or sag, and wash back to brand new for years and years. The waist bands are firm and well made and hold their shape.

                          these are the specific ones I wear and they are great for any weather, especially the hot sweaty days.

                            Also a really big fan of Mack Weldon. They have a decent rewards/loyalty program as well. @Oaktavia

                              @jordanscollected I was actually hoping Duluth would get mentioned because I did order a fee pairs of theirs. I didn't get enough to replace all of my cheapo ones though, so I'll check out @Filthy 's suggestion too. Just curious, why do you like the longer beliefs, Mike? Is it so that they don't get bunched up when pulling up pants?

                                    @Oaktavia Merz b Schwanen make some nice-looking loop wheeled undercrackers. I don't have any, but if their tees are anything to go by they'll be a treat for your gentleman's vegetables

                                        @Oaktavia I have both some Duluth Trading (I used to love their ventile firehose pants before I discovered IH) and the Mack Weldon long leg boxers and of the two I tend to prefer the Airknit MW I suggested.

                                        The Duluth stuff is definitely high quality and backed by a money back guarantee. But I prefer the fit, feel and comfort of the MW ones I suggested.
                                        I forget what the blue ones are called but they are not that comfortable. I had two pair of Armachillos that I didn't care for.

                                        Avoid the DT organic cotton boxers. They get pills like crazy.

                                        Avoid the MW Airknit xHD they get pills like crazy and snag a lot too.

                                        One of the things I like about the MW is they don't have any fly and I am not able to undo just the fly on a pair of XHS without undoing the waist too… So you really don't need a fly anyway.

                                        If Merz B. made long legs boxers I would be keen on buying them. But they don't. With XHS I like the long leg stuff, even Fruit of the loom makes ones I like and wear at work.

                                          You can get like 15 pairs of the FOTL long legs for the price on one pair of MW so they are pretty much a no-brainer
